Total Immersion / Swim Focus Workshop:
Level 2 Advanced Skills + Level 1 Refresher

One Day Level 2 Workshop at Wildorado, Berlin/Brandenburg

​

Saturday 10 October 2026 12:00-17:30

​

Advanced Skills (Level 2)

Learn the fundamentals of effective propulsion including an introduction to the catch and two-beat kick skills and a refresher of Level 1 skills including the patient lead arm and breathing drills.

​

About the Advanced Skills Workshop:

Building on the skills you have learned as a Total Immersion freestyle swimmer - balance, streamlining, stability. We introduce the catch - the movement of the arm as it holds water as the body passes. And the two beat kick - which not only saves energy but also improves stroke timing, balance and streamlining.  

​

Who should take this workshop?

Participants will have already completed a Level 1 workshop or have taken one-to-one training sessions with a certified TI Coach. Participants should have mastered the patient lead arm - meaning the lead arm (out in front) remains in position until the moment of the weight-shift / rotation - this is essential for learning the catch skills.

​

You will need a good level of balance in the water and to have mastered the three fundamental balance drills - Torpedo, Superman Glide and Skate. This is essential to learn the two-beat kick effectively.

​

What will you learn?

• Two-Beat Kick - minimises drag and turbulence and saves energy, but at the same time adds whole-body power to your stroke. 

• Catch - through carefully applied technique helps to propel your body forward through the water — rather than pushing water behind you.

• Review of Level 1 skills - balance, streamlining, arm recovery and breathing.​

​

Included as part of the workshop is a personal video analysis of your swimming by Total Immersion Workshop Director James Harding, which you will receive after the workshop via a download link. The analysis will cover positives, things to work on, and suggestions for next steps.
